Hague is growing due to its relatively low cost of living compared to Saskatoon. However, the town's connection to the farming community remains strong. It has a school, arena (with hockey and curling), grocery store, hardware store, Credit Union, post office, one restaurant, two gas stations, and a vehicle dealership. Construction on Highway 11 North was completed July 2011, twinning the Highway between Hague and Saskatoon.[citation needed]
Hague was first settled by farmers in the late 1800s and early 1900s.
In the 2021 Census of Population conducted by Statistics Canada, Hague had a population of 889 living in 339 of its 355 total private dwellings, a change of 1.7% from its 2016 population of 874. With a land area of 1.27 km2 (0.49 sq mi), it had a population density of 700.0/km2 (1,813.0/sq mi) in 2021.[1]
